Amplified Bible - Classic Edition

¹⁷ These men [the Judaizing teachers] are zealously trying to dazzle you [paying court to you, making much of you], but their purpose is not honorable or worthy or for any good. What they want to do is to isolate you [from us who oppose them], so that they may win you over to their side and get you to court their favor.

American Standard Version (1901)

¹⁷ They zealously seek you in no good way; nay, they desire to shut you out, that ye may seek them.
